Dawn Cousins made a very controversial appearance on This Morning as she claimed she is ‘too attractive’ find love.

The 44-year-old said friends of her children have come on to her, and that she doesn’t think there is anyone out there good enough for her.

While she hasn’t given up completely on finding love – even vowing to jet off around the world to look for a man if she has to – she has no problem with staying single if she can’t find a good match.

Speaking to Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, Dawn said: ‘I’m a very attractive woman, I look young and I’m very fun. I find younger guys messaging me wanting to take me out.

‘Older guys don’t put effort into themselves and expect to get pictures of me.

‘My kids think I need to lower my standards and find someone my age and just settle down, but I have the advantage of looking good. I’m not just going to settle just because I’m 44 and I’m not married.’

Talking about her kids’ friends chatting her up, she said they often offer to take her shopping.

‘My children’s friends aren’t saying ouright I want to date your mum, but the undertone is “let me see if I can get in there”.’

When Phil suggested that her confidence might be off-putting for men, Dawn was adamant that she shouldn’t have to change her attitude.

She said: ‘I’m not looking for Mr Perfect, I’m looking for a guy who is willing to work on himself and understand what a woman’s needs are.

‘Every part of me needs to feel like a princess every day, otherwise I’ll stay single and get a cat.’

And she’s prepared to go the extra (air)mile to find The One.

‘I’d be off round the world,’ Dawn said. ‘I’ve had people from all around the world say they would date me. I will hunt for my soulmate for the rest of my life.’
